Esamu is a one-year-old baby boy from Tanzania and the youngest child in a family of four children. Esamu’s mother has a small hair salon just outside of their home, while his father seeks day labor jobs at construction sites to support their family.
Esamu was born with a mass on the right side of his jaw and experiences redness and swelling. His parents tried to seek treatment for him at an early age, but they were not successful until now. Fortunately, our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare (AMH), is helping Esamu to receive treatment. He traveled to AMH’s care center where, on June 4th, surgeons will remove the mass. Now, Esamu needs help to raise $724 to fund this procedure.
Esamu’s mother shared, “we have spent the little money we had saved seeking treatment for our baby to no success. Please help our son.”

Esamu underwent mass removal surgery.
Esamu had a successful surgery that helped remove a mass on his left cheek. Scheduling his surgery took longer than planned because he was found to be anaemic and had to get healthy enough for a safe surgery. When his family returned to the hospital, the mass had increased significantly. After testing he was cleared fit for surgery and had the mass removed. He’s now recovered from surgery without any issues.
Esamu’s mother shared: “Life has been hard in the village with my sick child. I could not find means to bring him back early enough for surgery as I did not have money to travel. Am thankful he has now had his surgery. He no longer cries a lot due to the pain and discomfort he was going through. Thank you very much.’’
